Mechanical Control of Quantum Transport in Graphene

Author(s): McRae AC; Wei G; Huang L; Yigen S; Tayari V; Champagne AR;

2D materials (2DMs) are fundamentally electro-mechanical systems. Their environment unavoidably strains them and modifies their quantum transport properties. For instance, a simple uniaxial strain can completely turn off the conductance of ballistic graphen ...

The burnout-depression conundrum: investigating construct-relevant multidimensionality across four countries and four patient samples

Author(s): Leon T De Beer

This research seeks to contribute to the ongoing discussion about the distinctive nature of burnout and depression. In a first study, we relied on employee samples from four European countries (N = 5199; 51.27% women; M(age) = 43.14). In a second study, we ...

Entrainment and Enrichment of Microplastics in Ice Formation Processes: Implications for the Transport of Microplastics in Cold Regions

Author(s): Chen Z; Elektorowicz M; An C; Tian X;

Sea ice can serve as a temporary sink for microplastics (MPs), and thus, it too can function as a secondary source of and transport medium for MPs. This study aimed to explore the effect of various MP properties and environmental characteristics on the entr ...
